Public bug reported:

using ping -R does not function properly in Ubuntu 14.04.

Copying a ping binary from a Debian machine with the same version of
iputils-ping installed works as intended.

Expected behavior (Debian binary)

Faulty behavior (Ubuntu system binary).  Note each hop is replaced with
the target address.
